[Ord. No. 2206 §§1 —
2, 6-5-2000]
Information and data about an industrial user obtained from
reports, surveys, wastewater discharge permit applications, wastewater
discharge permits, monitoring programs, and from inspection and sampling
activities, shall be available to the public unless the industrial
user specifically requests otherwise and is able to demonstrate to
the satisfaction of the Director that the information is not required
to be disclosed under Missouri or Federal law. When the industrial
user has demonstrated that such information should be held confidential,
the portions of a report which might disclose the confidential information
shall not be made available for inspection by the public but shall
be made available upon request to governmental agencies for uses related
to the NPDES program or pretreatment program and in enforcement proceedings
involving the person furnishing the report. The City shall be permitted
to introduce any admissible evidence it deems necessary in any criminal
prosecution without regard to the request for confidentiality under
this Section. Wastewater constituents and characteristics and other
"effluent data" as defined by 40 C.F.R. §2.302 shall not be recognized
as confidential information and shall be available to the public.
[Ord. No. 2206 §§1 —

or Sections thereof which may be in conflict with this Chapter.
